Ludwig Bölkow Campus

In co-operation with the Free State of Bavaria eight consortium partners from business and the sciences have been shaping the future of the Ludwig Bölkow Campus located south of Munich since 2013. Embracing cutting edge research, training and continuing education to top-notch international standards while fostering an entrepreneurial spirit this project is aimed at underscoring and promoting Bavaria's competitive standing and leadership in innovation. From its Taufkirchen/Ottobrunn location it secures for the Free State a key role in the emerging markets of the future.

Munich Aerospace and its four member institutions, Technical University of Munich, German Aerospace Center, University of the German Armed Forces and Bauhaus Luftfahrt, represent the scientific partners of the consortium. The role of Munich Aerospace as part of the Ludwig Bölkow Campus is thus closely related to all of the Association’s activities, resulting in a substantial expansion of the Munich Aerospace network and greater leveraging of granted funds.

The Association follows up on and supervises the academic and scientific activities at this location, for instance

coordinating research projects,

initiating university study courses,

setting up international research co-operations, and

offering an attractive graduate programme.
